Let Imaginactive transport you into an alternate reality in which you are a super secret agent who must save London - and the world - from an apocalyptic alien invasion. Be immersed in one epic story unfolding across three types of workouts - running, bodyweight circuits and yoga stretch - to get you apocalypse-ready. Enjoy entertaining and effective workout sessions developed by expert fitness trainers and coached in-story by engaging characters like Skyler, your handler, personal trainer and running coach; Drill Sergeant Hardman, your bodyweight circuit trainer; and super-gran Beatrice, your yoga and stretch instructor. Get active and stay focused on your fitness as you enter a high-stakes fantasy world of alien invasions, time travel, secret organisations, and a dangerous mission, all narrated in a full-cast audio drama.

All episodes are provided as audio only or with video, and on the app and our website, to give you the flexibility to train anywhere, anytime.
